My stretch one was "Rubicon," obviously--I'd put that on even odds with "Everything in it's Right Place" and "Letter From an Occupant"

I'm not confident about any of my variables, but I think they have a better chance than Nas or Loretta Lynn. But I'd be even more surprised if "Dirrty" made it--would that many people really consider it top 15 of the decade? I find it hard to believe.

I'd say "Ms. Jackson" is the odd one out, except that'd mean "The Whole Word" placed higher, and that just doesn't make much sense, does it? So I'm going with "Yeah!," though I'm by no means confident.

'Freak...' (and 'Overload') and 'Love At First Sight' are sad omissions and I honestly think the Kiley Dean track I nominated would've made it if more people were familiar with it. Dem's da breaks.
